Do you cover Lamb Corner?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Lamb Corner. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lamb Corner. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repairing versus replacing in Lamb Corner

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Solid wood
  • Engineered wood
  • Laminate flooring

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CO7 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
